There is sadly no easy way to do this generically. You can build protocol extensions but the "core" of PA needs to have some degree of knowledge of this. Some modules do create protocol extensions tho'. e.g. see module-device-manager (not present until 0.9.21) and module-stream-restore (which should be available under 0.9.15) to see how this is done. I can advice further if you need, but not sure if this is already more than you'd be able to do (it would require building your own PA I think).
